The Protection business within Insurance & Wealth is undertaking an ambitious refresh of our digital proposition to customers. At the heart of this, we're creating a brand new technology platform which is fundamentally rooted in cloud native architectural principles, with 'infrastructure-as-code' & automation at its core.

About the role:

As a Senior DevOps Engineer within the Protection Lab you'll have the opportunity to work on large scale engineering change and to be part of a team driving the DevOps agenda within the bank.

DevOps is a very broad set of disciplines and you will call upon many of these in your day-to-day role of supporting our cloud-based build pipelines and route-to-live environments. A principal element of your role will be the ongoing development and support of our Kubernetes-based microservice architecture. You will be comfortable with Helm charts and fluent in Kubernetes concepts.

If you have the right technical background, a willingness to be part of an ambitious team and are willing to develop yourself then we're keen to hear from you!

What we need from you:

Containerisation & orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes etc..)

• DevOps tools (like Sonar, Nexus, GIT, Jenkins)
